Abstract

AbstractWe report a new route for preparing electro‐conductive composites based on reduced graphene oxide (RG‐O) and poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT). The composites were prepared by in situ polymerization of EDOT in aqueous mixture containing RG‐O platelets modified with poly(sodium 4‐styrenesulfonate) (PSS). In the synthetic process, PSS molecules stabilize RG‐O in the aqueous phase and function as a polymerization template to hybridize PEDOT chains along RG‐O platelets. Compared with the RG‐O platelets, the resulting composites show an enhanced electrical conductivity of 9.2 S cm−1 with good thermal stability. Copyright © 2011 Society of Chemical Industry
